How Can Both Engines Fail? Inside India’s Deadliest 787 Disaster
AI Summary
This video covers the tragic crash of Air India flight shortly after takeoff from Ahmedabad, where catastrophic dual engine failure occurred. Key evidence includes deployment of the RAM air turbine (RAT), cockpit audio with a high-pitched whine matching the RAT turbine, a survivor’s report of a loud bang and flickering lights, all pointing to a total power loss. The video explores potential causes for both engines failing simultaneously, including extreme heat effects leading to compressor stalls or fuel issues such as contamination or rare vapor lock. The crash marks the first fatal incident involving a Boeing 787 and tests India’s new aviation investigation capabilities. The black box data decoding will reveal fuel flow, engine thrust, temperature spikes, and pilot responses to shape future aviation safety rules.
